Looking for an affordable Russian zoom optic for a SGL 31.
THX1138 replied to Fenr1r's topic in Saiga / AK Optics & Sights
I have a PK-01V on my 7.62x39 AK, it works well and while the dot is pretty small, the brightness can be turned up and it works great out to about a 100 yards (my eyes are getting old, so after a 100 yards, I need magnification). I don't know your budget, but this optic is designed for the 5.45x39 round: http://www.npzoptics.com/catalog/day_sights/kashtan_1/ TXZen has a good write up about it here: http://russianoptics.net/1P78Kashtan.html -
That is a nice shooting rifle sir, and it looks cool as hell on top of that.

Here is my 1943 Sauer and Sons, with a 1942/43 style scope mount and a Leupold 3 x 9 scope (sorry, couldn't afford a real German scope for it). It shots great.

unclejake, great looking gun with the wood grips.

Kalinka Optics Belarus BP-02 (low centered) review

Great review, thank you for the write up. -
Sir that is a sharp looking build.
-
Very nice conversion, the blueing looks great.

Very nice looking. I have the RPG sight on my 5.45, I like it a lot. Havent invested in night sights yet. My 5.45 is without a doubt the funniest gun that I own, hope yours is as well.

That looks nice

My Stg2000 has been a great gun, magwell fit is sloppy, but it has always worked and is fairly accurate for a 7.62x39. A friend of my has one and it was crap -- Front sight block was canted, mag fit was worse than on my gun, gas tube was loose, and it printed a 39" group at 50 yards. I have heard their guns are getting better, but I dont have the money to test that statement.

Quick questions about drilling and pinning 74 FSB also Duracoat ?'
THX1138 replied to bigdust80's topic in Saiga .223
If you go with the Duracoat, make sure you let the finish harden for a couple of weeks. I didnt wait and I now have scratches on my gun. I can touch it up, not that big a deal, but it is a little frustrating. I have finished my 5.45 and my .308 and have had great luck with the finish. -
Janus, the wood looks great.

Jaba, that is a nice looking conversion.
-
Sharp looking rifle sir.
